Forgive me as I have sinned.Have you lately ??

"I have sinned" reminds me of the joke my old History teacher told about the British Lord Napier in 19th century India who took over territory he wasn't supposed to and sent a one word telegram announcing it to his masters in London, saying simply "Peccavi!" *
(The classically educated gentlemen of course got the joke.)


* peccavi in Latin = i have sinned (Sind.)
Not many folk know this ...

Not many folk know this I agree, mainly because in my comprehensive school education I didn't do Latin or 17th century English domination of India. we spent most of our time dodging the bullies and bent R.E. teachers. But I get your point, I think !
 
A good lad that I drink with in my local owes me a big favour and he has his own business,cleaning roofs,gutters,driveways and power washing etc.
I got a text from this morning saying "open your front door".As I did there were two Tesco bags,one with some scones,fresh cream and jam.
The other bag had 4 cans of Guinness.The text from him apologised saying that he felt awful that he couldn`t come around and clean the roof and gutters so he hope the scones for my missus and the Guinness for me would soften the blow.
What a brilliant gesture and I played shit with him for doing this, as I know he will get around to doing this.
However,my sin was not only drinking the 4 x Guinness cans but I`m now onto my 3rd can of Mixed Fruit Cider and quite possibly it will not stop there.It did not stop there,as I also scoffed a wonderful scone or is it scon ???
I did a previous thread saying how well I was doing,having not had a drink for 5 weeks,which has resulted in me losing to date 17 lbs.
This moment of pure unadulterated sin will cost me a few pounds of weight loss but at least its not cost me a few pounds in cash,as the Cider belongs to my lad.
I have sinned !! Will you forgive me please ?
If not then you too must have sinned lately ... but how ??

No idea how you can live with yourself. Then to come on here and boast about it? Beggars belief.

Ah the benefit of a classical education;)
 
I have not sinned against any gods as I`m an atheist, but I have sinned against my beliefs .... that I would drink no further ale until I`ve completed my diet and reached my target figure of 14 stones.
You can all fuck off with your scones ... ITS SCONS and there should be no bastard "E" in the word.
